# Flex Touch vs B4C

The clearest difference is rating: B4C at 5.0 against Flex Touch's 2.2. B4C also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 4 weeks). Flex Touch's advantage is ratings volume (30 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

B4C holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flex Touch has 30 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Flex Touch ships an update every 4 weeks, B4C every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
